    Kew Gardens soaps and hand creams for plant lovers

    Fragrances from the Kew Gardens range

    Every product here comes from the official Kew Gardens collection, made in the UK by The English Soap Company. The tubes, wraps and boxes carry botanical illustrations from Kew's historical archives, so they look good on a basin or a potting bench. The scents come in pairs: Bergamot and Ginger is citrus and spice over amber and sandalwood, Sandalwood and Pink Pepper is woody with pine and clove, and Bluebell and Jasmine smells of green grass, hyacinth and rosemary.

    For something softer, the Fig and Grape hand cream has peach, coconut and blond woods, and the Orchid and Vanilla soap is a fresh, unisex mix of pomegranate, fir balsam and plum.

    Soap, hand cream or hand sanitiser

    The soap bars weigh 240g and are enriched with shea butter and vegetable glycerine. The hand creams come in 75ml tubes and suit anyone whose hands spend a lot of time in compost. The 100ml hand sanitiser sprays contain 75% alcohol with aloe vera and vitamin E, and fit in a coat pocket.

    The Bergamot and Ginger Essential Hand Care Gift Box holds a 240g soap bar, a 75ml hand cream and a 500ml hand wash in a recyclable cardboard box, ready to give as it is.

    Putting a gift together

    A hand cream and a card make an easy present. Our greeting cards are blank inside, so you can write your own message. For a gardener, add something from our plant care gifts, such as a Gohobi apron, or a small plant from our houseplants under £10. If you would rather they chose for themselves, send a GrowTropicals e-gift card.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    The range covers soap bars, hand creams, hand sanitiser sprays and a hand care gift box from the official Kew Gardens collection. Each one is made in the UK by The English Soap Company, and the packaging uses botanical illustrations from Kew's historical archives.

    This page only lists products that are in stock, so the selection changes as items sell out and return. For other toiletries and candles, see our self care gifts.

    If you do not know their taste, Bluebell and Jasmine is fresh and green, and Orchid and Vanilla is described as unisex. Bergamot and Ginger is brighter, with citrus and spice over amber.

    Sandalwood and Pink Pepper is the woodiest of the set, with pine, clove and tobacco in the base. The Fig and Grape hand cream is the softest and fruitiest choice.

    The Bergamot and Ginger gift box contains a 240g soap bar, a 75ml hand cream and a 500ml hand wash, all in the same fragrance. It is made in the UK and listed as cruelty-free.

    The box is recyclable cardboard decorated with illustrations from Kew's archives, so it is ready to give without extra wrapping. Add a card from our greeting cards range to finish it.

    The 240g soap bars are enriched with shea butter and vegetable glycerine and come in a paper wrap printed with botanical illustrations. A bar of Sandalwood and Pink Pepper soap is a good example.

    The hand sanitiser sprays hold 100ml, contain 75% alcohol and are infused with aloe vera and vitamin E so hands do not dry out. They are sold for UK delivery only.

    Soap and hand cream work for most occasions. We include the range in our Mother's Day gifts, birthday gifts and thank you gifts.

    A single hand cream or sanitiser is a small present for a teacher, a neighbour or a stocking, and the gift box suits a bigger occasion such as Christmas.

    For a plant lover, pair a hand cream with a candle from Osmology, whose Tomato Leaf and Bonsai Tree scents are green rather than sweet. A book from our books and games range also goes well with a soap.

    For a gardener, add a plant or a plant care gift. The hand creams are a good choice for hands that do a lot of potting.
